A great site gets even better

All I have to say is that I love the website IMDB.com and I use it often.  It is one of the most useful movie and TV sites out there.  Now, they've made it even better. IMDB and it's parent company Amazon have teamed up with Hulu and others to provide not just clips of movies, now there are full TV episodes and full versions of movies.  Yes, I said full versions of movies.  Now, I know you're probably saying, sure, probably just old crappy movies.  And yes, there are a lot of classic movies, you can watch the original Casino Royale.  But there are also new movies available also, The Scorpion King, Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, and even Wierd Science.  And, it's also nice to watch episodes of shows on the web and being immediately able to go ahead and check out who that hot girl was on the episode you're watching, and what B-movies she's been in.  Well, there's other stuff you can do, but to each his own.  Go and check it out.

Why there were no male Amazons

Had to wait a couple minutes before posting this after I read it over at JijiNKS Ensue. Had to clean the Coca-Cola that sprayed out my mouth and onto my laptop. Lucky for them I didn't have it come out my nose, cuz then I'd be pissed.

But all jokes aside, I'd go see a Wonder Woman movie.

Gears of War 2 Available For Pre-Order


I have to tell you that I wasn't sure when the Xbox 360 came out that it was the system I wanted. I swore by the PS2, so logic would suggest that the PS3 would be that much better (obviously I was wrong). But what really made my decision of buying a 360 was Gears of War. That game was great to say the least, and to this day, I still play it.

Well get ready for the hype machine to start winding up again.

You can now pre-order Gears of War 2, which is due out on November 15th 2008. I know it's almost a year away, but I'm excited already!!!

Amazon "Customer Votes" Deals Are Amazing


If you're interested in a Wii for $79, you might want to head on over to Amazon.com. They have a 1000 up for grabs at that price, also with a 1000 PS3 for $139, and Xbox 360s for $99. Doesn't sound right does it? Well there is a catch.

You have to vote on the one that you would buy at that price, and then come back on a specific date to see if you can purchase it. If you item doesn't win, Amazon states that it will still be at a low price. At a $139 dollars, I don't think I could pass up the PS3, it's certainly worth that price!!!

There are other gadgets to vote on also, so you might want to go check it out.

Apple Cuts Prices On DRM-Free Music


Apple has gone on another slashing spree, this time with the DRM-Free songs on iTunes. In what was sure prompted by the Universal and Amazon.com moves, Apple has cut the prices from $1.29 to $.99. You rarely see Apple react to other companies moves, but this was a smart move on their part.

Now there is no reason to purchase any music that contains DRM from Apple, and I would hope that DRM goes the way of the gremlin.

NBC To Sell Shows On Amazon's Unbox


Looks like NBC is doing its best to piss in Apple's Wheaties today.

Amazon and NBC have reached an agreement to sell its shows on Amazon's Unbox video download service. Popular shows like "Heroes" and "The Office" will make its way over to the new service, pissing off Apple in the process. This most likely will happen after the current contract with Apple runs out in December.

Will this be good for the consumer? Not likely, due to the fact that they wanted Apple to raise prices in the first place, and charge more for newer content.

Greed once again wins out!!!

You get the PS3 and pick 3 movies from a list of 105, then mail in for an additional five more movies.

That's not bad!!!

Amazon Xbox 360 Premium: $330


If you're looking for a good deal on an Xbox 360, Amazon is here for you!!! The price brake that Microsoft gave the 360 wasn't enough for Amazon, as they've lowered the premium console to $330.

That's $70 less than what it cost 1 weeks ago!!!

So ride the fence no more my friend, and go pick you up one.

Get A Blackberry Curve For $49 Without Hassle


If you’re in the market for a new phone and the Blackberry Curve has caught your eye, don’t go walking into an AT&T store just yet. Amazon is offering the device for a cheap-as-hell $49 without any rebates whatsoever. Yup, just plug in your credit card, place an order, and you’ve got yourself a Curve for under fifty bucks.

One slight problem. If you break AT&T’s terms of service agreement in 181 days after the purchase, you get hit with a $250 fee from Amazon in addition to the normal fees AT&T will charge you. So tread carefully on this amazing deal.

Hit the jump for the deal. [BGR]
